Here is a blog developed to let patients speak about unsatisfactory experiences with the healthcare system. Their experiences are described as well as suggestions for improvement. Read through the stories to see if what they experienced could also happen in your environment.
Patient Safety Blog -Telling our Stories The purpose of the blog created in 2007 is ” … to teach and encourage patients and patient advocates to become knowledgeable, pro-active, and empowered partners with their doctors and nurses. The website provides unbiased advice to keep our parents, children and other loved ones with acute or chronic illnesses healthy and safe from medical errors (Farbstein, 2007).” The blog is run by Ken Farbstein.
